+\fBhv_net\fR \- Sample a random graph with an assigned joint degree distribution
+.
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+\fBhv_net\fR \fIgraph_in\fR [SHOW]
+.
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+\fBhv_net\fR samples a random graph whose joint degree distribution is equal to that of another graph provided as input, using the hidden\-variable model proposed by Boguna ans Pastor\-Satorras\.
+.
+.SH "PARAMETERS"
+.
+.TP
+\fIgraph_in\fR
+File containing the edge list of the existing graph\. If equal to \'\-\' (dash), read the edge list from STDIN\.
+.
+.TP
+SHOW
+If the second parameter is equal to \fBSHOW\fR, the program prints on STDERR the hidden variable and actual degree of each node\.
+.
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+Let us assume that we want to create a graph whose joint degree distribution is equal to that of the graph contained in \fBAS\-20010316\.net\fR (i\.e\., the graph of the Internet at the AS level in March 2001)\. We can use the command:
+.
+.IP "" 4
+.
+.nf
+
+ $ hv_net AS\-20010316\.net > AS\-20010316\.net_rand
+.
+.fi
+.
+.IP "" 0
+.
+.P
+which will sample a random graph with the same joint\-degree distribution and will save its edge list in the file \fBAS\-20010316\.net_rand\fR (notice the STDOUT redirection operator \fB>\fR)\. Additionally, we can also save the values of the hidden variables and actual degrees of the nodes by specifying \fBSHOW\fR as a second parameter:
+.
+.IP "" 4
+.
+.nf
+
+ $ hv_net AS\-20010316\.net SHOW > AS\-20010316\.net_rand 2>AS\-20010316\.net_rand_hv
+.
+.fi
+.
+.IP "" 0
+.
+.P
+In this case, the file \fBAS\-20010316\.net_rand_hv\fR will contain the values of the hidden variable of each node and of the actual degree of the node in the sampled graph, in the format:
+.
